Dartmoor Full Circle 100
The Dartmoor Full Circle 100 is a 100 mile continuous non-stop race that circumnavigates Dartmoor following the waymarked Dartmoor Way. It is described as the only landlocked 100 mile race in South West England.
The route skirts the periphery of the northern and southern sections of the moor and uses wild and ancient tracks, moorland villages, woodland and riverside trails, green lanes and quiet country lanes. The course includes over 4000 m of ascent and can cross rocky, tussocky and boggy ground. The event takes place in late autumn and includes a night section; weather may be cold, rainy or snowy.
Competitors must visit six indoor checkpoints, usually village or church halls, where hot food and drink are provided and aid stations are staffed by event crew and local running clubs. The race has a 34 hour time limit. GPS trackers are used to monitor competitors and a GPX file is provided for route navigation. Compulsory race kit is required and a full kit list is published by the organiser.
Entry requirements include a minimum age of 21 and a qualifying finish of at least 50 miles within specified dates. Finishers receive a bespoke medal and podium trophies are awarded by gender and age category. Medical support, changing and shower facilities are provided during the event weekend.
